What are your fav Sparrow Wallet features that may be lesser-used by others?

I'm looking to do a follow up video to this one, detailing the more advanced features that I didn't yet cover.

You can import xprivs. Although not straight forward, it allowed me to import my failed Lightning node keys to recover my funds.

Seed words for LND are not BIP-39 compliant so I couldn't just use the LND words to recover. I had to get the underlying XPRIV to recover.

Also being able to configure the gap limit also saved my ass. Otherwise I would have had money that I left on the table.

To be fair, seeing a different balance on Sparrow vs Bluewallet is really what saved my ass, but it's nice that we can extend the gap limit.

I can't remember which one had the smaller gap limit.
